the spine animation appears to be behind the layer colour, adding Z orders to the addChild’s doesn’t seem to make a difference, removing the this->addChild(layerColor); the spine animation is displayed.

I found similar issue. But this only happens when I call “setZOrder” and “reorderChild” function.

Say there are 40 nodes on our layer, 20 nodes (T) on top of 20 other nodes (B). Sometime the B nodes appears on top of T nodes after I call “setZOrder” and then “reorderChild” function.To “fix” the case, I add extra dummy nodes to group the nodes
